^ Are you 18? If so, thats really strange for a 2.0litre. I got quoted 6,000 for my old mans bimmer.

What area do you live in richie rich? What else did you put down when getting a quote? There must of been something to show that kind of a difference. Also, what cars where you looking at? Becuase if I can get insured for under £2,000, I'm happy. (PS: what insurers where you looking at?)

It wouldn't be the first time that we've been spammed with i-Kube stuff. Maybe the company employs people to 'subtly 'advertise on student forums? Anyway, i-Kube is a stupid buzzword sort of name for a company, thus you shouldn't give them a penny. Or, if you do buy from them, encase their GPS transmitter in a block of lead...

You think its a good idea that an insurance company can track your cars whereabouts, its speed and direction 24/7?! Like hell would I want that on my car. Ok if you drive like a grandma, but anyone who likes to press on that gas pedal is going to find themselves in hot water I think. Daft idea.

I was quoted £3,500 for 1.4 1999 Golf. I'm sorry, but that is rape and a half.

Freedom to drive? C'mon, what would you seriously be doing out on the street after that time anyway? And even if you where, it will only cost £45 per night. + the fact you still payed half the money to insure it, so if you where ever to go over and over, I doubt it would ever get close to the original quote by the end of the year.

Well I am in my early 20's with few years NCB so I don't need to worry about this anyway. Only £45 per night, lol I'll end up paying 1k extra. I am always doing something random at night-would rather not have a curfew hehe. It's only a 2 litre as well BMW, hardly a tuned hot hatch.

Nope. That's not what I was trying to say. I was trying to point out that insuring a 2.0 litre BMW in a rough neigbourhood will only cost £1,600? It just seemed to good to be true. First time driver and only 18m? Wow.

I understood that but other people didn't seem to, you were just using that as an example

You might aswell just by a Bus Pass, the point of a car is to have freedom to do where you want.

Whilst that is true, a lot of people wouldn't need to drive between 11pm and 5am.. I mean unless you're going out which means you'll be drinking anyway so can't drive, why would you need to drive at those times?

I want to do Paramedic Science at university, that means shifts between those times, with the possibility of having to leave before 5 AM! it's not that great for people who work nights, and basically counts out all healthcare students (nurses work nights too!)
